Burden increases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Increase Due to:

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The change in burden is an ADJUSTMENT due to a decrease in the estimated number of plans to be submitted to the CG annually. The change in the number of respondents is due to a change in the procedure used to count the number of unique respondents—needed to eliminate double-counting. Double counting can occur when the same submitter uses two slightly different names (e.g. Joe instead of Joseph). The new procedure assures that such double counting is unlikely to occur. For this reason, however, there is a change in the number of respondents.
